Grand Opening Wrap-Up

July 20, 2017

For the debut of the new Unscripted Durham, we’re kicking things with not just one grand opening event but SIX. Yes, you heard that right. We’re inviting all our new neighbors to party with us all week long. Summer is just getting started; North Carolinians, and you won’t want to miss this one (or six)! Come one, come all to the unveiling of Unscripted, the newest hotel located right in the heart of downtown Durham. This summer you’ll be living life Unscripted!

Kicking things off on July 21st – join us every Friday night at 9PM for NIGHT SWIM. We make waves, when the lights go down. End the week right with a dip in your new favorite pool – all while staring at the gorgeous Durham skyline. The possibilities are endless.

Be in a state of poolside bliss Saturday July 22nd from 12 to 5 PM. Join us for a day of bronzing and boozing at STEREO PATIO. Located at The Patio, enjoy the day swimming, feasting and drinking, (it seriously doesn’t get better than that) all while your favorite songs are played by local DJ’s and live bands. Only good vibes welcomed.

The day is not over yet- Every Saturday at 9PM BOOM will be taking place in The Studio. Dance the night away while sipping the perfect Dirty Martini to a rotating list of bands playing live music, all while mingling with other locals and visitors.

What’s the best way to cure a Saturday night hangover? Enjoying brunch poolside, of course. On July 23rd, relax with us at SUNDAY BEST and get ready to feast poolside, while listening to laidback tunes. Sunday has never felt so good.

We’re giving Mondays the boost it needs – starting July 24th, and every Monday following, come relax at THE DIVE INN. This is Unscripted’ s version of movie night but with a retro feel. Our first movie night will feature Jaws, because why not? Enjoy classic flicks while snacking on popcorn and cocktails. Swimming dips encouraged.

Tuesdays just became the new Thursdays. Starting on July 25th, experience Tuesdays like never before. Starting at 8 pm, jam the night away while listening to the artist of the night played by a local DJ. At SOUNDS OF THE STUDIO, tune in and wind down from the stressful start of the week. To set the mood, the first Tuesday night will be dedicated to Jay Z & Beyoncé (we know you’ve got Queen Bey’s dance moves down, who doesn’t?) Our motto: Socialize, Strategize, Drink Up and Hang Out.

Don’t think these events are just for our opening! Night Swim, Stereo Patio, Boom, Sunday Best, The Dive Inn and Sounds of the Studio are recurring weekly events, needless to say – you’ll be seeing a lot of us. So, come one, come all – and we look forward to getting to know our new community!

Unscripted Durham ribbon-cutting revealed exciting surprises, top to bottom. New gathering spaces (The Studio, Pool/patio Deck-has great atmosphere, feel) for unique, enjoyable exoeriences – I, we residents, are going to enjoy this superbly done retro/modern facility. Hotel rooms – refreshingly different in layout; all have a view of some active aspect of central downtown.
Can hardly wait to enjoy events and just hang out.
(facility is not just a renovation, I’d call it a resurection – no I ain’t a hotel reviewer. My viewpoint is personal, I’m 1 of 2 remaining design staff of the Architect for original Jack Tar complex. And thanx to the Hills and staff for preserving & improving this 60’s Modern bldg. including some authentic original details that I recognized.)
